Light spills in tangled hues
Yielding my first glimpse of you
Your face recites to me
Verses of wordless poetry
Not in my greatest mind
Had I foreseen your smile

I feel a rush of fear
Doubting true love found me here
Your hand extends to me
Rescue from doubt's churning sea
Slowly love's flower blooms
Joy's tears flow like sweet vermouth
Your love's the sweet sublime
My heart has longed for all this timeI feel a rush of fear
Doubting true love found me here
Slowly love's flower blooms
Joy's tears flow like sweet vermouth
Your love's the sweet sublime
Your love's the sweet sublime
Your love's the sweet sublime
My heart has longed for all this time
All this time
